Great experience

Our host allowed for early arrival which was so helpful for our family who drove. The house comfortably worked for our family of 14. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals for a crowd. The host provides paper goods, detergent and a pantry with lots of spices & condiments. The house is located in a safe, well maintained neighborhood and is convenient to all the sights and activities available to visitors in Colorado Springs.

Kissing Camels

Great location and plenty of space for the 8 adults and 5 children in our party. Skip was unable to meet us at the house, but he made sure we had all the info we needed to get into the community as well as the check-in/out procedures and details about the house that wouldnt have been obvious as a first time guest.

Great Colorado Springs Home

Skip greeted us and walked us through the house, which we all appreciated. This home was perfect for our family of 13 ranging from ages 2-68. There was plenty of space for everyone and multiple places to hang out and play games. It's located in a quiet community with very little traffic. We took advantage of wonderful locations that were SO close. Garden of the Gods, The Flying W Ranch, and Manitou Springs, and the Cave of the Winds are minutes away. It was a perfect space for our vacation. We'd rent this space again!

About the host

Hosted by Skip

I am an Air Force Academy grad, retired Air Force, and live in Colorado Springs. Originally from the east coast, I fell in love with Colorado and just can't leave. I am willing to share my home with you and trust you will treat it as your home.

Why they chose this property

Colorado Springs is a wonderful area year around. I believe you will find my home comfortable and fun and an excellent place for families to gather. Kissing Camels is a gated golf course community with excellent security. Hiking and biking in the stunning Garden of Gods park less than two miles away. Many other parks and recreation facilities are available.

What makes this property unique

Home theater, four fireplaces, pool table, large open rooms, and tremendous location make this a wonderful home for a family to enjoy. Next to Garden of Gods park, close to Air Force Academy and all local attractions. This unique home and surrounding area has much to offer. Unbeatable!
